MOPS stands for 'Mothers of Preschoolers'
Are you a mother of a Preschooler? MOPS provides an excellent opportunity for mothers of pre-schoolers to connect with one another for fellowship and encouragement. We have three MOPS programs to accommodate both stay-at-home and working moms. MOPS Bible Studies also provides MOPS women with the opportunity to study God's Word together.

What is MOPS International?
MOPS International exists to meet the needs of every mom ~ urban, suburban, and rural moms, stay-at-home and working moms, teen, single and married moms ~ moms with different lifestyles who all share a similar desire to be the very best moms they can be! MOPS recognizes that the years from infancy to kindergarten are foundational in a mother-child relationship and are filled with unique needs.
Local groups are communities that meet regularly to celebrate the joys of motherhood and to encourage each other through the challenges. They are chartered through local faith based organizations, including churches and Para church ministries.
MOPS helps moms through relationships established in the context of local groups that provide a caring atmosphere for today's mothers of young children. MOPS also encourages and supports moms through resources such as books, web site, MOMSense Radio program and the MOPS to Mom Connection.
